HardDriv'n Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 Hello. I was wondering if anyone would know of a good starting point concerning what could be removed from XP, with the exception of components needed for gaming.This would be for emulators, source ports, and somewhat older Windows games (pre-2003).Obviously, DirectX and possibly the OpenGL drivers would need to stay, but what non-essential processes could I get rid of to increase XP's system performance? What typical processes/utilities running by default in the background could I eliminate to increase available RAM, processor time, HD reading/writing speed, etc.?Has anyone done something like this before? I don't need the e-mail, internet, documents, or pretty much any programs not related to gaming... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
